No failure to assist. Former Cagliari midfielder Andrea Capone died of natural causes, unnoticed that night. A heart attack likely related to an arrhythmia caused by cardiomyopathy left him with no chance of survival. The investigation into the death of the Rossoblu footballer, found lifeless on the morning of September 29th in a suite at the Palazzo Tirso hotel in Piazza Deffenu, has been closed with the dismissal—ordered by the preliminary investigations judge of the Court, Giorgio Altieri.
Public Prosecutor Marco Cocco had also proposed to the investigating judge to close the case pending against him, alleging failure to provide assistance to persons unknown. The former midfielder's family opposed the move, requesting that the investigation continue to shed light on what happened that tragic night.
The discovery
Andrea Capone had been found inside the suite, near a landing, close to the stairs. For this reason, it was thought he had fallen in the hotel room where he had spent the night. However, coroner Roberto Demontis, appointed by prosecutor Cocco, ruled out any outside intervention.
